Iran Invites All Afghan Groups to Constructive Interactions

TEHRAN - The Iranian foreign ministry voiced concern about the growing wave of terrorist attacks in Afghanistan, and invited all groups and parties in the country to resolve problems through talks and interaction.
"We think that there are ill-wishers who attempt to change the order and stability through different ways," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi told reporters in Tehran on Monday.
"We invite all parties and groups in Afghanistan to constructive interaction and resolving the problems at the negotiations table so that they can reach a comprehensive understanding," he added.
Qassemi also underscored the necessity for Afghan groups not to allow foreign states to interfere in their internal affairs.
In relevant remarks on Friday, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani renewed his country’s backing for the Afghan government and nation in the ongoing fight against terrorist and extremist groups.
“Iran will continue support for Afghan people and government in fighting terrorism and establishing security and peace there,” Larijani said in his message.
In separate messages to Afghan Parliament Speaker Abdolraouf Ebrahimi and the country’s Senate Speaker Fazl Hadi Moslemyar, the Iranian speaker condemned the attack, adding that Iran will spare no effort help the Afghan nation.
“Terrorism and extremism are big threats to peace and stability in the globe,” Larijani added.
The speaker also expressed solidarity with people and government of Afghanistan as well as the bereaved families of the victims.
A huge explosion rocked Kabul's diplomatic area late last month, killing at least 100 and injuring 400 others. The blast took place near one of the national security offices and close to foreign embassies. (FNA)
